Arousal male problem

I have issue with psychological arousal - I can't get hard without physical stimulation. It's impossible for me to get hard by thinking smth sexy or watching on naked girl.
I can lie down on sofa and visualized the sexiest things - but under pants zero reaction. As well as sexy strip-girl dancing and rubbed against me during private strip dance - nothing.
What can be a problem or solution if I'm young (30) and completely healthy and have everyday morning wood? Nofap during 1 year nothing changed. Why my brain doesn’t have connection with my dick?) Now I use or injection or I need uninterrupted penis stimulation because even if I achieve erection it will fast deflate without physical stimulation.
How to make brain more “hungry”? There must be similar “victims”, I can’t be such unique)

could be hormonal, since you have good morning woods.
have you checked with a specialist?
testosterone (free) is linked to arousal, also pituitary hormones

have you ever had any medication that impact hormones? like finasteride

I have a high testosterone level as well as indexes of the others male sex hormones. Doctors said that I’m physically completely healthy.

you didnt answer about the medications.

btw could be a deficit in NO production since you tend to exclude (dont know why) venous or arterial problems

I'm completely healthy. Don't use any medications. I also tried testosterone injection for 3 weeks. My testosterone level was increase in 5 times but it wasn't change anything on my arousal.
About possible venous or arterial problems.. I made dopler test once and the results was good as the physician said, no arterial or venous problem. Also i have strong erection after all types of injections. Problem is in processes that launch erection.... Why i don't have response on visual or touching stimulus....It's like looking on car which you like or food which you prefer - you like it but you don't have an erection on it)

man, erection is a multifactorial process, that involves artieries, tunica a., nerves, testicles, hpa axis ecc

we, i mean the specialist i went to, often dont have a clear answer, because you would need a biopsy of every single tissue involved in this process, they just offer you a solutions for the symptoms.

What you are experiencing may not be that unusual.

Some men simply need physical stimulation in order to get hard.

I’ve also experienced this for the longest time and I’m 25 with completely normal development otherwise. Even looking at things that I still find attractive, there’s no mental rush of hormones that I experienced when I was 9 or 10. And it’s been that way for some time. I can get erect enough to penetrate from time to time, but even in these cases I don’t feel myself getting hard or any real sort of arousal. I took ADHD meds for much of my childhood into teen years, but I don’t know that this would’ve done anything. Have also tried NoFap and no porn for months at a time with no fix to my issues. I have been worried I permanently physically broke my penis as a young kid by a masturbation technique in which I would squeeze my penis between my thighs rather than using the traditional method. However I’ve been told that this would not have physically damaged me permanently and I haven’t done that technique in years. I’m just confused and worried that even an implant wouldn’t really bring back any sort of sexual satisfaction

Dan Savage (www.savage.love) writes the best sex advice column in the English language, in my opinion, and I think I've seen a problem like this discussed in past years. I don't remember the details, but you could look through the archive. (The archive used to be free of charge, but you might have to pay US$25/year now.)

I can relate to this. I generally need some sort of penile touch to get things started. Sometimes I get surprised once in awhile though. Have you ever had spontaneous erection or something happen at an unusual time?
